"The forest is the mantle of our planet. It is the health and well being of our children and grandchildren. It is our sacred home. It is our salvation." - DBK

TO SPEAK FOR THE TREES
Our Time to Listen
“Trees offer us the solution to nearly every problem facing humanity today. They do so even when we can’t or won’t hear them. We once knew how to listen. It is a skill we must remember.” - DBK

SEEDING A CULTURAL REVOLUTION
Rebuilding the Global Forest
We are in a climate crisis. A time of great uncertainty. But also a time of tremendous hope, consciousness rising, cooperation and excitement. To move forward, we must learn from the past to reclaim the interconnection between trees and humanity. If we strengthen those connections by planting trees, interacting with our forests and protecting our natural spaces, we can pause climate change long enough to have a fighting chance to mend our destructive ways.
“Planting trees is a means of stabilizing the climate long enough to address our destructive behaviours in earnest” - DBK

ABOUT DIANA
Diana Beresford-Kroeger is a world recognized author, medical biochemist and botanist. She has a unique combination of western scientific knowledge and the traditional concepts of the ancient world. Orphaned in Ireland in her youth, Beresford-Kroeger was educated by elders who instructed her in the Brehon knowledge of plants and nature.
Told she was the last child of ancient Ireland and to one day bring this knowledge to a troubled future, Beresford-Kroeger has done exactly that.
Her Bioplan is an ambitious plan encouraging ordinary people to develop a new relationship with nature, to join together to replant the global forest. She shares this dream with Harvard biologist E.O. Wilson who pronounced: Diana and I “want people to see the forest and the trees, and the wildlife abounding in wild environments, in fine detail. We want native species to be valued and cultivated one by one for the special place they have in the deep history of the land.”
